i just gave you 4 other ideas to use.....
sooo if you find that repeating the whole song over and over again is boring ...switch
it up ;)
now the second guitarists part intro...
(where it says 78 its a p7h8 but i couldnt write the h due to timings)
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4

now both of them together
